The easiest way to separate eggs! A friend showed me this fun trick for easily dividing an egg yolk and egg white, and I’ve been using this kitchen hack ever since.
How to Separate Eggs Easily
I love life hacks like this one. Over the years, I’ve learned a few fun kitchen hacks and shared them here with you like how to get egg shells out of a bowl, preventing boiling water from spilling over, and how to flavor plain yogurt. Separating eggs can be tricky. The egg yolk is fragile and can break easily. When you don’t want your egg yolk mixing with your egg whites, this is the separating egg method for you.
Supplies You’ll Need
- eggs
- bowl
- empty and rinsed plastic water bottle
How to Separate Eggs
Squeeze the empty bottle so you are pushing some air out of it
Place that bottle gently over the top of the egg yolk
Release your squeeze on the bottle so that it will try to fill up with air – only it will suck in the yolk instead of air
Continue to suction the rest of the egg yolk
You will now have the yolk inside the bottle separated from the egg white
To place the yolk into a separate bowl, tip the bottle so the yolk is in the neck of the bottle, and squeeze
Continue until you have all of your eggs separated
